Elle Krull Elle Krull 5'8" | SG Xavier | 2027 State WI does a fantastic job using her athleticism and speed to her advantage often taking the ball full court on fast breaks and finishing strong at the rim. She has a strong drive to the basket and uses her body well to create space. Her shot form is smooth, and she shoots on a hop off the catch giving her a quick release. Her crossover and euro step are particularly effective tools in her offensive arsenal. Elle averaged 10.7 points per game last season and shot 35% from the field. She also recorded 4.8 rebounds per game, showing her presence on the boards. In the state semifinal game against Kettle Moraine Lutheran, she had a standout performance with 20 points shooting 50% from the field and going 3-for-4 from three-point range. I believe she and her sister will lead Xavier to another successful season.

Unfortunately, Krull suffered a knee injury early in the AAU season, so we don’t know when we will see her again. However, her six points in less than a minute against Kettle Moraine Lutheran in the State Semifinals is a moment that I will never forget. She has the physicality to finish through contact, the skill to handle the ball through traffic, and the touch to knock down perimeter shots. Krull is also an excellent defensive piece due to her physicality and athleticism.
